Think twice before you eat that salmon.
Did you know salmon naturally carries over 70 parasites? And if it’s farmed, it’s often exposed to chemicals, antibiotics, and pesticides that can end up in your body.
Wild salmon pick up parasites from their environment, especially in coastal waters near marine mammals. But farmed salmon face even more risks—raised in crowded pens, fed processed meals, and treated with chemicals to prevent disease.

Why do salmon eaters don’t care about Australian threatened species?

“Australia has the highest rate of mammalian extinctions in the world … The only way to protect the hundreds of threatened Australian forest species is to end native forest logging....The Maugean skate is very much at the forefront of the zero extinction target."
